Hello it is a simple pool to get your opinion about Yahoo. I like do this and see how everybody think. Thx

Excellent. Thats enough for me. I love yahoo than google. Maybe because i know Yahoo first than Google.

I only use it when I can't get the right answers to my queries. It's not my first choice definitely.

Yahoo is only good when google seems to hold no real answers.. lets face it 1/2 the stuff you type into google you get the WRONG results

I can get what I want but not always. Many times bad results show up. That's why I use yahoo when google fail. If yahoo can improve, I will switch to yahoo completely

If yahoo had a more simplistic outlook and look itself then I think more people would use it, thats the main reason for google use skyrocketing. Its just a box button logo and text not loads of pic's etc etc

Hmmm....but the truth is I like the news and contents. Sometimes the videos are also interesting, so I don't mind them being there. However, not all users think that way. My only concern is the quality of search results which I think google is better in this department.

True, some people make it harder on themselves for example:

For searching and general boredem I use google

For news I use bbc.co.uk as its always been there :P

I could cut down on 2 websites by just using one, but its weird that I prefer it this way

Hmmm...If only we have best of both world. A good search engine and nice site providing all the important news and information that we want. That would be great.

I read yahoo news and I like very much. I sometime play the game and follow to link to movie update which I enjoy. I seldom use the search. The food recipe section is also good

Yeah, in fact the information is very updated and nicely written. If only Yahoo search engine is as good as google, then I don't have to switch from one site to another typing 2 different addresses.

In my view, Yahoo ranks a distant second or third to Google; usually I can get my search results using Google solely - so there is really no reason to use others.
